Ridgeway
Academy is an 11-18 mixed comprehensive school based in Welwyn Garden City. It
was founded in 1968 as Sir Frederic Osborn School, in honour of one of the
founding fathers of Welwyn Garden City, and became Ridgeway Academy in 2018 when we joined the Alban Academies Trust.
Now oversubscribed, the school retains its strong sense of community with our students describing us as ‘a school with a big heart’.
Our school vision is ‘Everybody can achieve’. We will develop every student’s capacity to learn so that they become increasingly independent as they progress through the school. The strength of positive relationships between students and staff allows everyone to achieve in their learning.
The very highest standards of conduct, respect, effort and personal attainment are our goal for all members of our school. We are a caring and well-disciplined school and our key aim is to ensure that all students realise their potential. We are a happy school, with an energetic and talented staff committed to the achievement of our young people. Everyone has a part to play at Ridgeway Academy and everyone is listened to.
We are a member of the Alban Academies Trust, a Trust where each school makes a powerful contribution to the on-going progress across the Trust, and we enjoy working in partnership and learning constantly from each other. Working collaboratively we remain focused on continuously improving to provide both rewarding careers for our employees’, and amazing experiences for the young people in our care.
